中国食管癌高发区食管原发性腺癌组织病理学研究Ⅰ．食管原发性腺癌的临床病理学分析

中国食管癌高发区河南省近１５年（１９８０～１９９４）病理确诊的７３６４例食管癌中，其中食管原发性腺癌（ＰＥＡ）２３９例，占３．２５％。通过对２３９例ＰＥＡ手术标本（包括早期癌２０例，其余为中、晚期癌）切片系统观察，指出中国食管癌高发区ＰＥＡ主要起源于食管固有腺体的各级导管部分。ＰＥＡ的病理组织学可分６型：腺导管癌（１０９例）、腺鳞癌（５４例）、腺样囊性癌（２９例）、粘液表皮样癌（２０例）、基底细胞样癌（１５例）、胃型腺癌（１２例）。每型的组织图象及预后均各有特点，提示ＰＥＡ组织学再分型有意义。     

Early experience with laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection

Background: Laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection (LAPR) has not been fully evaluated as a technique in the treatment of rectal and anal cancer or inflammatory bowel disease. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the early experience with laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection at Washington University Medical Center. Methods: A prospective analysis was performed on the first 21 patients undergoing the procedure at Washington University Medical Center. Indications for surgery included rectal cancer (14 patients), anal squamous cell cancer (four patients), inflammatory bowel disease (two patients), and anal melanoma (one patient). Results: The procedure was converted to open procedure in four patients (19%). The mean (±SEM) operative time and blood loss for completed and converted LAPR were 239 ± 11 min and 424 ± 43 ml, respectively. Postoperative hematocrit dropped a mean of 8.3% ± 1.2% SEM; five patients required blood transfusion (24%). Wound complication occurred in four patients (19%; three perineal, one trocar site). Bowel function returned after a mean of 3 days, and mean postoperative hospital stay for the completed LAPR group was 5 days. Mild pain was experienced by 81% of patients (17/21) while 19% (4/21) noted moderate pain, usually of the perineal wound. The mean duration of patient-controlled analgesia use was 2 days. During the 1–44-month follow-up, six patients (29%) died from cancer (stage III or IV at operation) and only one patient developed local recurrence in the pelvis (5%). There were no trocar-site implants of cancer. Furthermore, there was no relationship between prior abdominal operations, the amount of blood loss, postoperative drop of hematocrit, or blood transfusion requirement and the length of hospitalization or complication rates. Conclusion: Laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection is a feasible alternative to the conventional open technique in both cancer and colitis patients.

Laparoscopic cryosurgery for hepatic tumors

Background: Hepatic cryosurgery has been shown to be a safe technique that may be well suited to a laparoscopic approach. Methods: The technical feasibility and safety of laparoscopic cryosurgery was explored first in a pig model. Thereafter we performed the first successful case of laparoscopic hepatic cryosurgery at our institution. Results: In the animal model, we found that it is possible to safely identify, target, and cryoablate specific lesions in the liver. Temperature in the peritoneal cavity remained above 35°C, and pathologic examination of the abdominal wall around the cryoprobe site revealed no damage. We also successfully treated a 62-year-old man with a metastatic colorectal carcinoma deep in the right lobe of the liver with laparoscopic cryosurgery using a transpleural approach. Conclusion: We conclude that laparoscopic cryosurgery is feasible for lesions anywhere in the liver. For lesions high on the dome of the liver, a transpleural approach may provide better access.     

Low peripheral plasma renin activity as a critical marker in pediatric hypertension

In evaluating hypertensive children and adolescents, the etiological considerations should include a set of inherited disorders that share very low plasma renin activity (PRA) as a common feature. In particular among these disorders, glucocorticoid remediable aldosteronism (GRA) appears to be emerging as an important etiology of hypertension in the pediatric population. We report the evaluation of a 9-year-old Caucasian girl who presented with severe hypertension and a strong family history of early-onset hypertension. Her suppressed PRA, her family history, and her failure to respond to conventional antihypertensive therapy raised GRA as a potential etiology. The diagnosis was confirmed by an elevated ratio of urinary 18-oxotetrahydrocortisol to urinary tetrahydroaldosterone and genetic testing, which demonstrated the chimeric gene duplication. The molecular pathogenesis of GRA and the clinical implications are reviewed. Received May 15, 1996; received in revised form and accepted September 16, 1996     

Ambulatory laparoscopic fundoplication

Background: Increasingly larger series of laparoscopic fundoplications (LF) are being reported. A well-documented advantage of the laparoscopic approach is shortened hospital stay. Most centers report typical lengths of stay (LOS) for LF of 2–3 days. Our success with LF with a LOS of 1 day led to an attempt at performing LF on an ambulatory basis. Methods: Sixty-one consecutive patients with appropriate criteria for LF underwent surgery at our institution. Patients were counseled by the authors as to the usual postop course and progression of diet. All patients received preemptive analgesia (PEA) consisting of perioperative ketorolac and preincisional local infiltration with bupivicaine. Anesthetic management included induction with propofol, high-dose inhalational anesthetics, minimizing administration of parenteral narcotics, and avoidance of reversal of neuromuscular blockade. Immediate postop pain management included parenteral ketorolac and oral hydro- or oxycodone. All patients were given oral fluids and soft solids after transfer from the recovery room to the postoperative observation unit. Two patients were excluded from ambulatory consideration due to excessive driving distance from our hospital. Another two were hospitalized for observation after experiencing intraoperative technical problems. Results: Of 57 patients in whom same-day discharge was attempted, there were three failures requiring overnight hospitalization: All were due to pain and nausea; one patient also suffered transient urinary retention. There were no adverse outcomes related to early discharge, and there were no readmissions. One patient returned to the emergency room after delayed development of urinary retention. Median time from conclusion of operation to discharge was less than 5 h. No patients expressed dissatisfaction with early discharge on follow-up interview. Conclusions: LF can be safely performed as an ambulatory procedure. Analgesic and anesthetic management should be tailored to minimize nausea and provide adequate pain control.
